  • My family and I spent a wonderful week at this perfectly finished and supplied house. Every space was used...4 cooks could work in the kitchen and the table was perfect for our family of 7. Dad stayed on the screened in porch with his Garrison Keeler books, laughing so loud you could hear him on the beach. Mom on the deck sunning and reading by 9 am. We lined up 6 or so chairs every morning on the beach and moved forward and back with the tides. Kyle and Zach manned the surround sound, grill, and keept ice in the cooler for cold beverages. We kept a steady eye on the dolphin shows and when the code word was yelled through the house everyone ran to the deck to take turns viewing the show through binoculars. The girls took the upstairs and it was like we had our own little pj party. We ventured out for the specialty foods of the islands, fresh shrimp and gullah fixins'. I learned a coveted shrimp dip receipe from a local...she was in her 70'S and her eyes lit up when she explained the different versions of shrimp dip she had made and tasted over the years in the low country...all said, we wouldn't have changed a thing!

  • My family and I enjoyed a wonderful week at this house. The house is comfy, cozy and located in the perfect area. The beach is very inviting, Hunting State park is 5 min away, Savannah 45 min. There is something for everybody in the family. The weather was perfect, the house inviting. The owners are lovely people. I would tell anyone looking for a family vacation to consider renting this house.

  • What a wonderful experience! A gorgeous ocean front piece of property, luxurious amenities, breathtaking sunrises, and even dolphins! My family and I enjoyed a week of relaxation at the Andrew’s lovely beach property. The beach is amazing and there is even a pool for those less interested in salt water. We would definitely recommend this to others and are now huge fans of VRBO home rentals for other vacations in the future. Next time we are in South Carolina, this Harbor Island home will be our get-a-way of choice! I would certainly recommend this choice to you if you find yourself looking for a relaxing get-a-way with a family of young or older children alike. There is something for everyone! You will not be disappointed!! Best Wishes

  • Thank you so much for the opportunity to spend a week at your beautiful beachfront home. Our family had one of our best getaways yet. Our kids range in age from high school to preschool and EVERY one of them wanted to stay longer. The beach is so perfectly clean and private we felt like the ocean was our own front yard. The water is great swimming by day and full of really interesting marine life to watch on the beach at night. The daily dolphin show was amazing for the kids to see. When it was low tide, we would head down the street to the neighborhood rec center for an outdoor swim. Your location provided just the right mix of ocean and pool for everyone's liking. Your home is a beautifully appointed, comfortable place to unwind. What a treat to find it so clean and welcoming. Thanks again....we can't say enough about our stay. We hope to come back again and again over the years.

  • My family has been visiting this house for 6 years now. Obviously, we love it! If you're looking for a place that is fully equipped (only need to bring your swim suit and shorts)this is it. Great house, great views, great private beach!

The home is fabulous with a fantastic view, the beach is beautiful, the sunsets are breath-taking, and the dolphins are a sight to see. We'll definitely be back. Thank you for the best family vacation we've ever had!

  • My boyfriend and I invited another couple to join us for a holiday at your home. It was absolutely beautiful. The house is so pretty and inviting. The beach is smooth and clean. At night it felt like we could touch the stars. To make it even more wonderful - my boyfriend proposed to me under those stars! We hope to return soon, maybe for our honeymoon in September, 2009. I understand you will be doing some remodeling and we are looking forward to that too! Thanks for the best holiday ever!! Sincerely, Sharon and Ron

  • My husband and I just returned from a wonderfully relaxing week. Starting each and every morning watching the porpoises and varieties of birds was a welcoming sight. The starlit sky was amazing. The long walks on the beach, the seafood and shops. Visit Hunting Island Beach. Another great beach area or stop in at Oyster Cay. A unique furniture shop using recycled woods. Beautiful pieces. Be sure to check out Red Piano Too. Right off Hwy 21. If you enjoy wine, the Lowcountry Winery is worth a stop. Located at 705 Bay Street. Historic Downtown Beaufort. These suggestions, as well as other points of interest, are with-in a short driving distance. Johnsons's Creek Tavern & Blackstone's are a few places we ate, and would visit again. No matter what your day entails, a lovely and comfortable home awaits you.

  • My friends and I had the opportunity to stay at your lovely beach house in October, 2008. Although the first day the weather was cold and damp, the house was warm and welcoming. Fortunately for us, the weather changed and we had the opportunity to do some fishing, collect sea shells, and do lots of walking on the beautiful beach. It was an absolute delight to wake up in the morning, put on a pot of coffee and sit and watch the boats trolling for fish, the dolphins leaping from the water and the tide coming in. I cannot thank you enough for the comfortable home, the view, and dinner in your lovely dining room. It is our hope to return this same time next year, perhaps a few days earlier and stay a few days longer. Looking forward to cooking in your new kitchen!
